Has anyone had sharp thigh pain after hip replacement

Hip is done from a partial bipolar prosthesis to a full hip revision. The ball at the top of my prosthesis was too big and it was also a partial before. So far I have less pain then I have been experiencing in the last 2 years. I take 1/2 tab of my pain killer. Strangely when I sat down after my first surgery I felt like I was sitting on a ball. The ball at the top of the prosthesis was too big so dr hedley took it off replaced it and made it a full hip. I dont feel tha ball anymore when I sit and the pain afterwards is less than the the last 2 years. Please God let it be even better after this heals. I love the docs I met with the group the hospitalists the hospital was nice too. I am so thankful that I found Dr Hedley when I did. I was so bummed about not being able to be active. Let you know how it goes.. so far so good.

Thank you so much for this reply! I am feeling a little better but still having hip pain (around the new hip) and it goes down the inside or outside or front of my thigh...whichever it feels like that day. I completely understand what you mean about the "ball" you were sitting on. After my surgery I felt like I was sitting on a board. Like I had one in my back pocket. Kind of in a curved shape. This is very interesting and I am glad you found the help you need. I hope it works out very well for you!
